Trendy Tendencies In Technology
Within the rapidly evolving know-how and science industries, companies, colleges, and governments need staff with various talent units, a broad capability for problem solving, and a group-oriented perspective. Many scientists and researchers use acceptable science journals to publish their own work in the type of a brief scientific paper that consists of 5 to 30 pages. New medical expertise is being repeatedly developed, from medical trials for prescription drugs to robotics for complicated surgery!
Today, every research library on China, and each major library on science and history, has the Needham collection as essential reference. When you are establishing your personal science journal, these standards should be explored in detail by your editorial board, in order that acceptable reviewers can then be chosen to hold out this process.
College students want stable knowledge and understanding in bodily, life, and earth and space science if they're to use science. Using contrived …

At a glance
New in July 2018
The latest version 12 of the legendary audio editor SOUND FORGE Pro has been improved even further and now offers impressive new features: Voice activity detection and DDP export.
Voice activity detection using artificial intelligence
The new SOUND FORGE Pro 12 now comes with the "sensAI SINGING VAD" from audEERING, the specialists in intelligent audio editing. This innovative tool can detect human voices in music pieces and marks the passages containing vocal lines. Based on the latest artificial intelligence technology, the voice activity detection feature detects lead vocals and choruses.
With clear visualizations, the "sensAI SINGING VAD" is an excellent tool which provides you with an overview of complex mix projects – like for example when producing jingles or teasers. VAD also excels in indexing extensive libraries efficiently as well as professional DJing.
DDP export
DDP masters are mastered CDs that are digital data provided with a checksum that are sent to the pressing plant - for an audio CD production that is absolutely free of errors. Your high-quality finished master is resistant to generation loss thanks to duplication and can be easily archived. In the new SOUND FORGE Pro 12, export the Disc Description Protocol Master and your discs are ready for pressing.
Additional new features
in SOUND FORGE Pro 12
64-bit version
SOUND FORGE Pro 12 enables you to shape audio in an infinite variety of ways. The 64-bit architecture harnesses the full power of your computer to fulfill even the highest creative demands, using increased RAM up to what your motherboard can support. This can reduce latency problems when you are running large projects.
VST3 effect support
SOUND FORGE Pro 12 includes full VST3 effect support for all
high end plug-ins.
POW-r Dithering Algorithms
POW-r is a set of three commercial dithering algorithms – now in SOUND FORGE Pro 12. Each is respectively optimized for simple recordings such as spoken word, limited dynamic range recordings like rock music, and wide dynamic range recordings such as orchestral music. Just choose the noise-shaping type that adds the least amount of coloration to the audio.
Support for more file formats (DSD)
You can now import and export Direct Stream Digital (DSD) audio files. This allows you to step into the high-end market as this format is compatible with equipment like the Tascam DA-3000 or TEAC UD-501. At 352.8 KHz / 24-bit PCM this guarantees the highest quality possible. Record and mix in PCM format and export to DSD format for Super Audio CDs (SACD) mastering and high-quality archiving.
The ultimate in ultra high-fidelity
SOUND FORGE Pro 12 offers the very best quality of audio recording and playback. You can record up to 32 channels of high-resolution audio simultaneously, at 64-bit quality and with sampling rates of up to 384 kHz. Rest assured, that this is the ultimate audio processing tool for a huge range of professional tasks: from mastering CDs to broadcast-quality video soundtracks.
New effects
Wave Hammer 2.0
Wave Hammer 2.0 is the perfect tool for audio mastering and includes both a classic compressor and a volume maximizer for the ideal two-stage mastering process.
First, compress and flatten the peaks in your audio to create a more average volume level. Secondly, maximise and raise the volume of audio for impact. Wave Hammer 2.0 makes your tracks stand out, with total control over levels and peaks.
When A/D converters are pushed too much or magnetic tape is over-saturated you'll end up with digital and analogue artifacts – clips and distorted peaks – that need repairing. DeClipper can rescue everything from corrupted live concert recordings to recorded interviews.
DeHisser is the ideal tool for eliminating regular, low-level "white" noise typically produced by microphones, pre-amplifiers or transformers, and it removes this very common audio problem with ease.
DeClicker is great at removing individual clicks and pops often present with audio taken from old vinyl and other phonograph recordings, and it can also be used to remove short impulse noises from more digital sources. DeCrackler is suited to get rid of more continuous and low-level noise from your recordings.

Moir Park Revisited, Games People Play and Manoj Bhargava
I got up Saturday morning and drove to Bloomington to take some photos at Moir Park. It's a park a little more than 2 miles from where I grew up and one that I'd only been to one other time that I can recall and that was probably 45 years ago. I was talking with a friend about it on Facebook and it piqued my interest to go back and have another look.
The one memory I have from that visit all those years ago was descending some concrete steps and how they led to a park that was so unlike the world above. The park was and still is a tranquil setting with a creek (Nine Mile Creek) running through it. I'm surprised we'd never gone there as a family for an afternoon picnic when I was a boy.
When we finished our basement 11 years ago we purchased a Simpson's Pinball Party pinball machine with the idea that Rachel and her friends would have a blast with it. It didn't quite turn out that way though because pinball seems to be something that's of little interest to her generation or at least to her group of friends. They used it some but it mostly sat quiet for months at a time. I would go down and fire it up occasionally but I almost always seemed to have things I'd rather do on my days off. I would tell myself again and again that once I was retired I'd be finally making use of it. And I'm happy to say that I am. I've been hanging out in our basement during the evenings playing pinball, darts and sharpening my bumper pool skills.
I had John from Pinball Plus out to tune it up a few days ago. One of the flippers was sticking and a few small lights had burned out. I thought it was something I could maybe service on my own but after seeing the game opened up I realized that it wasn't anything I'd want to mess with. John was telling me that it's one of the best games out there but one that's difficult to learn. The game is so deep in terms of strategy. I found a 45 minute video online of a guy playing the game while describing his strategy and making sense of it. I'd need another lifetime to get this good.
The worst of the fall cleanup is behind me and I'm relieved about that! So far my tally of compost bags used this year is up to 48 but I'm not done yet. Last year I used 53 and there are still leaves that haven't fallen. Yes, I actually count how many compost bags I use. Don't you?
The biggest difference in doing the year's yard work was a nifty device I picked up at Home Depot that works to keep the compost bag open while filling it with leaves. It makes much quicker work out of the job and spares you a bunch of frustration in the way of less collapsed and ripped bags while trying to fill them. Easily worth the $8 I spent for it.
I meant to post this here last week but it slipped my mind. It's a video from the maker of the small bottles of 5 Hour Energy that you've no doubt seen in the checkout aisle wherever you do your shopping. I've always looked at that stuff as the wares of a huckster and not something that would ever interest me but perhaps I shouldn't be so quick to judge. Manoj Bhargava (as I wrote on Facebook) is either the slickest snake oil salesman or one of the most forward thinking people alive today. Watch the video below to see what I mean.
I've got some pinball to shoot while I contemplate solutions to our world's problems!

Black is a colorTuesday, October 07, 2014
I walked into Gap the other day and the whole front of the store was a monochrome scheme of black. I could have bought one of everything. Black, gray, and white have always been my go-to colors during the winter. It seems depressing, I know, but I fall in love with these colors again every year when the weather turns cold. They are so versatile and always looks cozy.
I put together a little collection of some favorites in these colors that I've seen around the interwebs, plus a few links to inspire you as well.
Wear an all-black outfit
Paint your pumpkins black
Spray your pots with chalkboard paint
Remember this trick for wearing all-black

Well day 3 of the holiday was pretty boring, apart from the white water rafting, which was awesome. We all got up very early and packed the cars. The final bills were paid at the Hotel and we checked out and made our way home. We had a 12-non booking for all 8 of us to go to Penrith for an hour of white water rafting. There is an Olympic course there and it was really cool. For anyone who knows about white water rafting, it is a Type-3 river (not a simulated Type-3).
We arrived with about 15 minutes to spare and everyone got into (and out of) their clothes in preparation for the white water rafting. We finally get our gear on and are in the rafts (I will spare you the boring safety talks – lol). We push off and I am sitting next to Peter. We begin practicing scrambling from side to side to even out the boat if we get into trouble and we begin.
After about 3 laps we get to learn how to "surf" a wave. This is where you go to a spot where the white water is really curling back onto itself and you try and stay in position by moving the weight in the boat from side to side. We managed to keep our boat afloat for about 10 minutes straight until we didn't get on the side enough and the boat flipped completely. I am told that I had a "ride 'em cowboy" look on my face as it went down, but everyone else was in absolute panic. I thought it was really great that we were going to get wet, up until I came to the surface and saw the look on Mums face. She was panic-stricken and so worried, but not about herself, about Josh and I. She came to the surface spluttering the words, "Where's Mitch and Josh?! Where's Mitch and Josh?!" I giggled for a second, until I realized that she was actually putting her life in danger because she wasn't worrying about her own safety. Well I started floating off and there wasn't much I could do. I just put my legs up the way the guys told me to and just kicked back and enjoyed the ride. Luckily, Mum was quickly dragged out of the water and everyone was fine.
Josh, Steven, Myself and our Instructor has one last "surfing" experience, when we purposely took it into the hardest part of the course with the intent of flipping the boat. I felt my side go up fast, so to make the most I jumped and did a back flip off the side. It felt pretty cool.
Other than driving home, nothing much happened at all. Mum was *very* sick and still is, and all in all it was a pretty good holiday.

Pusch, Konrad Kohler, Wolfgang Berger, Bernd Wissinger; Isolation of the Mouse Nyctalopin Gene Nyx and Expression Studies in Mouse and Rat Retina. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis.

purpose. It has been shown recently that mutations in NYX (nyctalopin on chromosome X), encoding a novel protein associated with the leucine-rich repeat (LRR) protein superfamily, are responsible for the complete form of X-linked congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB1). This study describes the isolation and molecular characterization of the mouse orthologue Nyx and its expression pattern in the retina.
methods. Nyx was isolated by conventional DNA library screening and polymerase chain reaction (PCR)–based approaches. Gene expression in different mouse tissues was studied by RT-PCR. Subsequently, the expression pattern of Nyx and its gene product in mouse and rat retinas was investigated by RNA in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry with Nyx-specific antibodies.
results. The Nyx gene encodes a protein of 476 amino acids that contain 11 consecutive LRR motifs flanked by amino- and carboxyl-terminal cysteine-rich LRRs. At the amino acid level, Nyx is highly homologous to its human orthologue (86% identity). The gene is expressed in the eye but also, at lower levels, in brain, lung, spleen, and testis. Nyx expression was found during all stages of postnatal retinal development and was confined to cells of the inner nuclear layer and the ganglion cell layer in adult mouse and rat retinas.
conclusions. These data suggest an important function of the Nyx protein in the inner retina and provide evidence that CSNB1 is based on a defect in the inner retinal circuitry.

Think you gained a few pounds? No matter how much you weigh, it will always be the perfect weight with the Yay! Scale, a bathroom scale that celebrates your body every time you step up to the plate.
Whether you've lost ten pounds, gained twenty or stayed with the same extra tire you've been carrying around for the past couple of years, the numbers won't matter. The Yay! Scale tells you it's awesome, no matter what.
Designed by Marilyn Wann, the Yay! is a regulation rack and pinion bathroom scale (2 x 10 x 9.75 inch dimensions), sporting various modifications that turn it into a unique weighing implement. The machine's chassis has been outfitted with a lush fabric covered in pink furs, while the large dial has been replaced with a new disc clad in a different print. Instead of showing weight in numbers, they are printed with numerous physical compliments, including "SEXY," "PERFECT" and "HOT."
A weighing scale for those who don't care to know their weight, the machine chooses to pay you a compliment, rather than bore you with measurements. After all, who cares about numbers when you feel good about your body (mmm...other than your doctor, probably)?
Stop feeling insecure about a few extra pounds and take on a new perspective. The feel-good Yay! Scale is sold by Voluptuart for $55.

I have mixed feelings about this month's Glossybox.
I needed none of the products but I definitely was very exciting to see a minature of one of my favourite fragrances ever: Chloe Eau de Parfum. The tiny little bottle is so cute and the smell is amazing.
Item no. 2 in my level of satisfaction rating is Lierac Luminescence Serum, I'll try this one out with pleasure, though I believe owners of dull, dry skin would benefit more from its properties than me.
Then goes Cashmere eyeshadow base by a Polish brand Dax Cosmetics. The base has irridescent feel and looks surprisingly nice on my lids. It might turn out to be the dark horse of this box. The only thing is that I have so many different eyeshadow bases that I doubt I'll ever manage to use them up.
No.4 is Happymore BB Cream. This is the first time I've heard of the brand, so I checked it out. It appears to be a Polish brand which makes organic cosmetics for SPA salons. There's no mention of organic ingredients in this particular product, but having had a look on the website I'm lead to believe all their products are organic. I've only managed to swatch the BB Cream on my wrist and it seems to have no coverage at all but it felt nice on my skin.
What attracted my attention more than the product itself was the price.
30ml jar COSTS roughly $65!!!! Can you believe that? How can a Polish brand expect to sell a non-coverage BB Cream for the price even Guerlain wouldn't dare to charge?
And finally Glyskincare Hydrating Eye Cream.
It occupies the last position not because I don't like it. I love eye creams and use them a lot but there are so many of them in my stash that I suppose I won't be opening this one for another couple of months. This product is by an American brand and seems to be a real bargain with its price tag of approx.5$ for 40ml of product.

Gingrich's proposal comes in reaction to accusations from his second ex-wife, Marianne Gingrich. The former Mrs. Gingrich said that her then-husband gave her the option of divorce or an "open marriage" when he began seeing Callista Bisek, a Congressional aide twenty-three years his junior. When Marianne declined the option of sharing her husband with another woman, Gingrich divorced her and married Callista, now his third wife.
Gingrich affirmed his stance on traditional values to his fundamentalist audience. "I believe that marriage should be between a man, a woman, and his mistress. That's the way marriage always has been, at least in Washington and Hollywood."
He further clarified his proposal for how marriage would be defined under his potential administration. "Just because there are two women involved in the marriage, that doesn't mean that they should do any freaky-deaky lesbo stuff … unless I'm in the room … and they're both really hot…and we get it on video."
Gingrich's opponents quickly decried the proposal. Minnesota Congresswoman and former Republican candidate Michelle Bachmann condemned the idea, stating, "Marriage is between a man and a woman. God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve." She made her statement as she saw her husband, Dr. Marcus Bachmann, off at the Minneapolis Airport. Dr. Bachmann was reportedly on his way to a "Pray the Gay Away" seminar at the Castro District in San Francisco.
Former Massachusetts Governor and current Republican front-runner Mitt Romney also spoke out against DoOMA. "As a Mormon, the idea of a man keeping a mistress on the side, away from his wife, is absolutely abhorrent. He should marry her, too, and bring her into the family as a 'sister-wife'."
President Obama also spoke out against the so-called "Open Marriage Amendment". "I believe that any legislation that keeps people from making a commitment to whomever they love, regardless of race or gender, is wrong. However, I would be willing to concede Speaker Gingrich's point if Michelle would agree to a three-way with Halle Berry."
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was on an overseas diplomatic mission and could not be reached for comment. She later responded via her Twitter account with this message:
"Nice Newt! U wanna have ur pie & eat it 2? Anybody remember '96? Lewinsky? Impeachment? My husband? Bueller? #hypocritemuch"
A spokesman for the Gingrich campaign responded to the outcry. "DoOMA is a legitimate proposal and Speaker Gingrich is showing his true leadership abilities. I mean, it's not like he's John Edwards and divorced his wife when he found out she had cancer!"

Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel. Pull the skillet from the heat (leave drippings in the skillet) and stir in 1 12 tablespoons cider vinegar, scraping up any browned bits clinging to the skillet. Pour the mixture into a large bowl and whisk in mustard, salt and pepper to taste, and olive oil.
Fill a nonstick skillet with about 2 inches of water and bring it to the barest simmer over medium heat; add the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar. Crack the eggs, slipping them gently into the water, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes.
While the eggs poach, toss the greens with the vinaigrette and bits of bacon. Divide the salad among 4 plates or shallow bowls. Using a slotted spoon, gently scoop the eggs from the water, blot dry with a paper towel, and place 2 of them on top of each salad. Add bread to each plate and serve.

Angels have no philosophy but love. Adeline Cullen RayBefore the training session at Choices begins, Thelma Box, the creator of the program, gives the coaches three rules: 1. Love the people when they walk through the doors. 2. Love the people when they walk through the doors. 3. Love the people when they walk through the doors and keep loving them.
This week, I was blessed with the responsibility of being one of two Team Captains. Our job, to ensure the training ran smoothly, the coaches were on task and that no task was left undone. For the five days of training to be successful, the schedule needs to be adhered to, processes completed in sequence and the details effortlessly filled in. Papers need to be handed out. Lights dimmed. Microphones shared. Chairs moved. Circles formed. Signs posted. Doors opened and closed.
Everyone was on task and completed their jobs with ease and grace to create a successful week.
But that's just the practical part of the training.
For each trainee to 'walk away a winner', as the C&W song suggests, they must feel loved.
And that's where the angels come in.
I was surrounded by angels all week. By human beings of the ethereal kind who, through their constant and continuous loving of each trainee, created the space for miracles to appear amongst us.
On Friday morning, Bill Spangler, who is the Choices Rep for Alberta, asked the group to look around the room, to see the faces beside them and across from them and ask themselves, "Is this the same person who walked into the room at noon on Wednesday?"
In two and a half days, burdens were lifted, broken hearts opened to love, and spirits awakened to their beauty. Eyes had brightened (and would become brighter yet within the next two and a half days). Frowns had turned into hopeful smiles. Heads were lifted higher. Faces softened. Bodies stood taller.
"Think about the stories you've told and how in their telling you have freed yourself of their pain," he said. "And then, think about the people you meet out on the street, in your office, at the coffee shop. Like you they're just ordinary people going about their business. If each of us in this room carries pain, is it possible every person we meet is carrying pain too?"
Pain and sorrow is limiting. Past hurts lugged into today inhibit our ability to move freely.
What would happen in the world if everyone could let go of the pain and sorrow of the past, no matter how small, how trivial, how inconsequential they think it might be? What if everyone gave up keeping up appearances and simply appeared as the beautiful human being they are right now and loved themselves for all they're worth -- warts and blemishes and all?
What a different world this would be.
There were angels in the room this week. And, amidst their beauty, miracles unfolded in the hearts and minds and spirits of everyone.
In their loving embrace hearts beat freely, dreams awoke and the world became a more loving place.
It is possible to 'change the world one heart at a time'. To do it, we must never stop beating the drum of love.
The question is: What drum will you beat today? What pain will you release to free yourself up to loving yourself just the way you are?

The main task of one of our projects called 'ICT and exercise in 5th grade' was to develop a lesson plan which integrates ICT and exercise for a class in the 5th grade (age 11). We, as the study group, had to become a teacher team around this 5th grade class. Our main task was to develop a week study plan for the pupils.
Our group decided it would be useful for children to create a project during their Project Week. The main task for them is to choose and compare two different cultures and write and present the whole project in English.
Here is what we have done:
The timetable for the 5th grade
Learning objectives
- The main learning objective of the week: to get acquainted with new cultures and their traditions.
- English: as English is our 'lingua franca' in the globalized society, we have to, as teachers, prepare our students for the world they are gonna experience. This is also important as the students are already aware of global issues (environmental issues, poverty, etc.) and users of international culture (music, movies, etc.). That is why the goals for the student is to be able to comprehend English, use and produce texts in English, and be able to participate in culture meetings. They should be taught the tools to expand this knowledge on their own as they are taught how to learn and communicate. They should get these tools through different methods in a positive learning-environment.
- Cooking: In cooking the student should be taught to make healthy choices about food throughout their lives. The students are taught to cook food they like and comprehend the cultural values of food.
- History: Chronological contexts from the earlier years are expanded upon and the students have to be able to place important events and persons in chronological order, as well as explain the principles behind the way history is divided into periods. The students are taught the links between Danish and international history. The students should be able to credit their sources.
After deciding which learning objectives have to be fulfilled, we started planning each day separately. The result is shown below.

Why Netflix Was The Long Trade Of The Day
Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) has been 2013's Tech darling. The company made a significant change to their business model in 2012 and it turned out to be the saving grace of the company. Since then, Netflix has been on a tear and is up over 250 percent in 2013.
However, Netflix has had an interesting couple of weeks. Its October 22nd pre-market earnings announcement had the stock trading up big in the early going. However, after an incredible -20.25% intraday reversal move, many traders believed that Netflix's great bull run had come to a close. Increased volatility in the Internet stocks space (see: FDN) followed Netflix's wild session, and more conservative traders such as myself had given it the cold-shoulder, thinking the stock would be nothing more than a wacky hot money play moving forward.
Well, it turns out I was wrong. Volatility in the Internet space has waned, and Netflix has actually displayed quite favorable price action since the October 22 madness.
In recent weeks, Netflix has consolidated modestly and formed a base at $314. The stock has been operating well above its 50-day moving average since mid-July, which is also bullish sign in the intermediate- and long-term. Looking at Netflix on a weekly basis, it's easy to see that the long term trend is a strong (straight) up-trend, but the fact that it tends to operate above its 50-day moving average shows just how consistent a trender it has been this year.
Netflix traded as high as $389.16 on October 22, but don't call that the "immediate upside potential" for a swing-trade on Netflix since that price was likely an algo-induced over-reaction to the earnings announcement. Instead, we would set the price target to a more realistic short-term target - $355.42. While setting a stop down just below $300 makes sense, we like to keep our reward/risk ratios high, so we would set a tight stop on NFLX around $313.05, just below recent support.
This morning, it is looking like a favorite swing-trading idea. Don't let the recent volatility or long bull run irk you, as Netflix has a sterling technical picture and great bullish price action since October 22's disaster day.
When to Consider Entering the Trade:
Buy at the current price (~$333.90).
When to Consider Exiting the Trade:
At a close below $313.50 (Breakdown) / A close of $355.42 or above (Profit-Taking)

(GamesIndustry International) PS Plus is "contributing in a big way" to PSN sales, Sony informs us.
Sony's online efforts have come a long way in the last six years, and while some would argue that Xbox Live is still superior, one unique differentiator for PlayStation Network is its PlayStation Plus offering. In fact, one industry veteran close to Sony told us recently that Sony has "drastically undersold" the value of PlayStation Plus. Sony appears eager to change that, if you ask John Koller, VP of PlayStation Home and Handheld Consoles.
I love the service for the PS3, now bring it full force to the Vita with some free games and some discounted titles. It'd breathe some life back into the handheld (I note the irony of what I just typed) just in time for holiday sales. Side note: I am loving Frobisher says!
Clearly, at some point they're going to have to diversify their content because they're going to eventually run out of games. So I'd say they'll have a classic selection of much older games and start including Movies, TV shows and maybe even Singstar tracks.
An instant Singstar collection of about 12 tracks would be a good move considering they've just added it to the XMB
Depending on what Playstation Plus offers for Vita, I might actually end up buying one.
I already subscribe to it for the PS3 content. I'd say the content there is nice.(although it looks they are mostly offering games that didn't sell well, with a few exceptions)
2 issues with PS+:
1) I had to upgrade my HDD to 1TB to accommodation all my PSN games and PS+ games. First world problem, I know.
2) I have to neglect my wife and children to catch up with all the games I have b/c of PS+, but...so be it.
Very solid, value add service.


text: Maybe there are already tutorials for this, but I don't understand how everything works... I am new to the scene... Hopefully somebody is willing to help me... I bought a Passcard 3 and a Supercard Lite. The Supercard Lite came without software. I visited eng.supercard.cn and download a rar-package called SuperCard Lite (MicroSD) V2.55C & Firmware V1.63. Inside the package, the following files are included: Moonshell reset for SC.nds patch moomshell for super card.exe scfont.fon setupmicrosdV255Cen.exe UPGRADE.scu I believe Moonshell is some homebrew tool but I am wondering what this "Moonshell reset for SC" means and what "patch moomshell for super card.exe" does? Then there is the install file called "setupmicrosdV255Cen.exe". I installed this application but I don't understand where it is for. And what to do with "UPGRADE.scu" ? Hopefully somebody can clear things up. Thanks in advance.

CG Questions 5.8.16
- This week's sermon talked about different ways to hear God's voice. Some ways are: the Bible, various phenomena (dreams, visions), other people and circumstances. He compared these various ways to travel and traffic in New York – the sound, chaos, getting stuck or lost. Have you ever experienced the 'traffic jam' of hearing God's voice that Justin mentioned? Briefly share your experience.
- Break in groups of 2 or 3. Justin talked about superstitions we may have when it comes to hearing God's voice. These usually spring from the 'traffic jam' inside from other's voices, circumstances etc. Some of these superstitions are the "random verse", "open door" or "fleece" method.
Confess any of these practices that you may hold to when it comes to hearing God. The purpose behind this is to move forward in an honest, ongoing conversation with God. Pray for one another for real change.
- Have someone carefully read 2 Cor 6:6-16. Perhaps even read these verses from a few translations. The following questions will focus on chunks of verse within the larger passage.
3a. Go back to verse 9 & 10. The verses tell us that God has revealed amazing and unimaginable things to us through His Spirit. Talk about an area of life where you need more wisdom, more of His clear will revealed (i.e. a relationship, a living or job situation, an important life choice you are facing). How will you apply this biblical truth to that need this week? (for example: more time in prayer, repenting of doubt and believing God wants to speak). Plan on sharing next week what God has spoken to you concerning this and what action you took.
3b. Read verses 12 & 13 out loud together. Justin told us that your spirit is the primary terminal of communication with God. Is this evident in your life? Do you regularly hear the voice of God?
If not, what is honestly standing in your way? Perhaps you don't believe God will speak directly to you, or there is willful sin or disobedience that you are struggling with, or maybe this is a new concept to you. Whatever is holding you back, today break into groups of 2 or 3 and ask God to show you His desire to communicate through your spirit. This week JOURNAL what God has said and act on His words (i.e. share your faith, forgive someone, give generously to someone in need etc). Again, be ready to share next week what you are hearing from God.
3c. Read verses 14-16. Think about any choice or decisions you may be facing in life. Practice the "Disciple Test" mentioned in this week's sermon. What choice can you make in that situation that will make you look more like Jesus? What fears do you have that may be blocking this? What specific action will you take to overcome that fear with faith.
- Read this passage together.
Deuteronomy 1:30-31 (ESV)
30 The Lord your God who goes before you will himself fight for you, just as he did for you in Egypt before your eyes, 31 and in the wilderness, where you have seen how the Lord your God carried you, as a man carries his son, all the way that you went until you came to this place.'….
Take a few minutes and make this your prayer. Agree with one another for this simple request:
Father, Teach us your inner voice

Awakening the Earth Mind, an Ancient Holistic Mode of Consciousness
John Briggs, (United States) Author of books on creativity and the new science, and Robert Toth, (United States) former director of the Thomas Merton center, educator.
The anthropocentric (human-centered) mode of consciousness that has dominated our thinking for the last 20,000 or so years views the world in terms of subjects and objects. Most people implicitly believe that this mode of consciousness is consciousness itself, the only way of perceiving the world and understanding our place in it. However, a second mode of consciousness that we call the holomorphic or Earth mind mode, also exists in us. This is a holistic way of seeing and being in nature that is also part of our evolutionary heritage. This mode of consciousness has been inadvertently suppressed by an overfocus on the anthropocentric mode. But it has been kept alive by indigenous peoples. The question put to conference attendees is: How can we re-awaken the Earth mind to help us face the climate crisis?

Advice for the new couple after The Bachelor finale
Another season of The Bachelor comes to a close. Chris Harrison teases us by promising the most dramatic finale ever. Jamaica is again the scene for Ben to tell two women he loves them, until all of the sudden in the end he tells us he is fully in love with one of them. Was this for TV, or was he not able to understand his own feelings until the end?
More: What 'The Bachelor' can teach us about feeling unlovable
The process and format of the show allows for this confusion to ensue. Reality TV does not make clarity an easy thing, as there wouldn't be an entertaining show without the drama.
For a guy whose greatest fear is to be unlovable, Ben's worries seem to have faded into the past by the close of this season, as he says he has indeed found love. His young age and fears seemed to be challenges, but maybe the journey of the show allowed him to learn about himself, understand his emotions and self-reflect in order for him to find love. Hopefully, he has learned enough for that love to continue after the show, when the real relationship begins.
Looking down at the rings, Ben tells the camera that he knows who it is he is fully in love with. In the blink of an eye — or shall we say in the blink of a Neil Lane diamond — he is now fully in love with one woman. (I imagine he knew this all along but the audience was not told till now.) Ben tells the camera he "cannot wait to fully love one woman" until he says goodbye to another women that he loves.
More: Why 'Married at First Sight' proves marriage is about more than compatibility
The confusion inherent in this type of reality-TV dating might have led to the multiple feelings, and The Bachelor's format does not make things simple for contestants. There is a strong need for having emotional management skills and emotional IQ to help everyone in relationships understand themselves in relation to others. Throughout the end of the season, Ben fights to figure out where true love is, and emotionally this is quite a scene for feelings to be all over the place.
The Bachelor presents a journey most people cannot relate to, though most can relate to the feeling of loving someone fully — a concept that is a powerful statement and goal.
Ben's fairy tale ends with him professing his full love for Lauren B., as he tells the camera he has found a love he cannot lose.
In "After the Final Rose," he tells Harrison falling in love with two women — and expressing his feelings — is something he cannot say he regrets. He says he was just being as honest as possible. Runner-up JoJo, tells the audience she saw that Ben and Lauren B. had a connection from the beginning. We know that emotional insight or gut feeling in love and that chemistry from the first meeting with someone can be a good precursor to love — at least in this case. Both people seemed to feel something unspoken from the beginning.
In the words of John Gottman's Method for Healthy Relationships, follow these concepts for finding and maintaining love:
- Build love maps (to know your partner's inner psychological world)
- Share fondness and admiration
- Turn toward (state your needs)
- Have positive perspective (positive approach to problem solving)
- Manage conflict
- Make life dreams come true
- Create shared meaning
- Trust
- Commitment
These concepts are the ingredients for success in creating a healthy relationship, so if the Bachelor couple can succeed at these, they have a chance of going the distance after the final rose.

My teeth are getting yellow, what can I do to make them look better?
If you are unhappy with the "color" of your smile, tooth whitening may be a perfect solution. As we age our teeth discolor for a variety of reasons, including smoking, cola drinking, red wine among others. This results in a dingy smile. But most stains are easily removed. The active ingredient in tooth whitening is peroxide. When applied, the peroxide breaks down allowing oxygen to enter your teeth to remove unwanted color without harming the structure of your teeth. You will see faster and have better results with a whitening system monitored and performed by your dentist. The result --a beautiful smile.
My friend went to a "Cosmetic Dentist" How is that different than a "General Dentist?"
Most "Cosmetic Dentists" are "General Dentists." There is not a recognized specialty
field for cosmetic or aesthetic
dentistry. What to look for; Experience. Ask to see before and after photos of the
dentist's work. If they regularly do cosmetic procedures, they will have photos of their work for you to see. Also Important, ask where they received their advanced training, and verify it. Some of the premiere cosmetic programs are at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, P.A. C. Live, and The Pankey Institute.
I am 42, I work in sales and my front teeth are crooked. Is there a way to fix them without wearing braces for 3 years?
The short answer is Yes. Depending on your specific needs there are several options a trained Cosmetic oriented dentist can provide. Bonding of tooth colored filling material can be done to change the appearance of minor crooked teeth. Porcelain restorations such as veneers and crowns can correct more severe cases. Cosmetic solutions can produce spectacular results and only over a few weeks time. My advice would be to get a consult appointment with a "cosmetic" dentist so that you can determine which option best suits your needs. Remember, a "Cosmetic Dentist" should be one that continually pursues Advanced Cosmetic Training beyond dental school, year after year.
I'm 60 years of age and wonder if it is worth it to fix my dark, worn teeth. I've lived with them this long and besides, I don't need to look twenty again! What do you think?
People update their clothes, houses, furniture, cars after 60 years it is OK to invest in yourself and restore your teeth and give yourself the smile you've always wanted. You're worth it! I've had seventy year old plus patients go through orthodonics, crowns, and veneers to give themselves beautiful and better functioning teeth. People notice smiles and teeth; people also notice bad teeth! It is best to choose a dentist who understands cosmetic smile designs and age appropriate color and shapes to your age and style. Remember, ask to see before and after photos of the doctors cosmetic work, to assure yourself of his/her competence.
How many teeth do I need to have worked on to have a beautiful, white smile? My teeth are very yellow but otherwise are straight and in good shape.
Well, generally you would need to veneer a minimum of eight to ten teeth. You would not want just four or six very white teeth because your smile zone extends well past the six "front" teeth. Sometimes, you can whiten your teeth and veneer the front six teeth, but the change would be less dramatic and thc color would be dictated by being able to blend with the darker premolars. We teU our cosmetic patients, when you look at your smile, the number of teeth that you see when you smile are the number of teeth you want restored in order to have the most beautiful, natural, healthy looking smile.
I recently completed treatment for periodontal disease and now my dentist tells me that I have to go back every 3 months. I thought the treatments cured the gum disease.
There is no cure for periodontal disease. Treatments for this problem help the patient to "manage" and keep the disease in check. Like Diabetes or high blood pressure, regular monitoring and preventive treatments are necessary to keep the problem at a minimum. Periodontal disease tends to have a hereditary component to it; nevertheless, there are many things the patient can do to help minimize the problem. Strict oral hygiene, especially between the teeth, using floss, waterpik, and interproximal brushes can really help. Watching one's diet (minimizing snacking and sugar exposure) is also helpful. Smoking makes this problem even worse. Additionally, regular visits to your dentist (at least every 3 months) has proven to be an enormous benefit.
My Husband tells me I grind my teeth at night and I sometimes wake up with either a sore jaw or headache. What can I do?
Grinding or the medical term, Bruxism, has two parts. One is the cause and the Other is the damage that it can do. To answer the question, I would recommend having your condition evaluated by someone experienced and trained in the treatment of Tempromandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMD). Bruxism and a poor bite can lead to severe tooth wear, jaw joint (TMJ) damage, headaches, neck aches, and fatigue. This condition can and often does worsen over time. A TMD dentist will evaluate the relationship of your muscles, nerves, and the way your teeth come together. It may be necessary to make an orthosis (a type of night guard) that will place your bite in an optimal position. By making an orthosis tailored to your specific needs, your Jaw joint (TMJ), head, and neck muscles will be at their most relaxed state and slowing or stopping the damaging effects.
The subconscious grinding of teeth, "Bruxism," is caused by multiple factors. It can start and stop being caused by stresses, either physical or psychological. Usually there is an underlying "occlusal" (the way teeth fit together) cause. Our teeth must fit together in such a way as that the maximum number of teeth are touching in order that we may eat. This position although good for eating may not be the most comfortable position for the muscles of chewing or the Jaw Joint (TMJ). It may be necessary to make an orthosis (a type of night guard) that will place your bite in an optimal position. By making an orthosis tailored to your specific needs, your Jaw joint (TMJ), head, and neck muscles will be at their most relaxed state as possible.
Bruxism is caused by many fuctors such as stress and improper bite relationships. The Damage can lead to severe tooth wear, notching of tooth roots at the gum line, Jaw joint (TMJ) damage and head and neck muscle damage/fatigue. One of the two ways to treat this problem is by making an acrylic appliance called a night guard. This limits the tooth wear that occurs while grinding. The second treatment option is to actually help treat the underlying cause by making an appliance called an orthosis (resembling a night guard). The orthosis will reposition your bite. The Dentist will evaluate how your teeth come together vs. how your teeth should come together. This limits the amount of muscle fatigue, headaches, neck aches, Jaw Joint (TMJ) destruction, and tooth wear that occurs while grinding. (This also applies for people who clench their teeth!) A neuromuscular examination and treatment should be sought by a dentist that is well trained in the treatment of TMJ related problems.

Do you refer patients to specialists?
While we are trained and equipped to handle many dental issues in our office, when a specialist would better serve you, we'll refer.
Some dental specialists are oral surgeons, periodontists (Gum Specialist), endodontists (internal tooth problems), orthodontists (for moving teeth), and pedodontists (for children). We refer to only trusted professionals with whom we have a good rapport.
What are mini implant dentures?
MDIs are dental implants that hold dentures in place, and they can be surgically implanted in one day. Implant-supported dentures create a reliable hold and freedom from messy adhesives! Learn more about MDI on their website.
My smile is missing teeth. What do you suggest I do?
You'll need to first schedule a consultation with the dentist. The dentist can assess your oral health and discuss options for replacement teeth. In general, you can choose from crown and bridgework, partial or full dentures, or dental implants.
As the most natural prosthetic to natural tooth structure, a dental implant offers the most long-lasting, comfortable, natural-looking choice.
What are the benefits of a digital X-ray over traditional radiographs?
Digital X-rays offer unparalleled benefits over traditional radiographs: they're convenient, safe for the environment, provide a great opportunity for patient education, can be transferred and copied accurately, and best of all, they're safer for our patients. Digital X-rays emit about 90-percent less radiation than traditional methods.
How does the doctor keep up to date on current techniques, technology, and materials in dentistry?
Our dentist and our team take more than the state's requirement for continuing education each year. We also read trade journals, attend professional association meetings, and do everything we can to keep in tune with the latest developments in general and cosmetic dentistry, as well as dental technology.
We are passionate about our careers, so we enjoy soaking up new information on our profession, then sharing it with you!
I avoid dental visits because of anxiety, is this normal? Can you help?
Many people fear dental visits because of negative past experiences or control issues. We understand dental anxiety and offer a solution to help you overcome your stress.
I have not been to the dentist in years, and I'm ashamed to let a professional see the condition of my mouth. Is your staff judgmental?
Your mouth is a big part of your overall health, quality of life, and self-esteem.
We will not judge you, but help you by addressing your oral problems, explaining treatment options, then scheduling a plan of action that suits your schedule and your budget.
How can you straighten my smile without using metal braces?
Depending on your unique case, we may suggest porcelain veneers or Invisalign clear braces. Read more about these procedures in our services area.

If You Have A Long Commute, Like To Find Parking In A City And Need A 5 Person Capacity, Buy One. — The combination of amazing handling, great fuel economy, astounding interior space for size, and low price make an unbeatable match. I love filling the tank with only eight + gallons of fuel, it's easy on the wallet, but limits the range to about 325 miles between fillups. The power is sufficient, but it would be much more fun if it had more power, but not at the expense at increased fuel consumption. This is a great small car with lots of space, much more interior space than a civic. I highly recommend this car especially to a commuter or city goer as you can park it anywhere!
Primary Use: Commuting to work
Pros: Great fuel economy while being fun to drive!
Cons: Stoplight races, you will not win.

I Love It. — The think I liked first about this car was that it looked cute. It may be a bit small but that was what I needed. You can stuff a lot of things in the back and the seats folded rather nicely. I had no problems accelerating, very tight handling, small turn base and it was a fun ride.
Primary Use: Commuting to work
Pros: Cute compact, very good all arounder.
Cons: It only reaches about 140kph

The Fit Is Go — The Fit can "fit" just about anything inside. This car has more interior volume than my Jeep Grand Cherokee. The gas mileage is excellent as I have marked 40 mpg at least three times over the last year of ownership. Even though the inside is big, the driving position for a 6'3" guy is not the best. Long trips get to be longer. However, the around town stuff is a breeze. Need a gallon of milk? The Fit makes it quick and fun with the optional flappy paddle gearbox. Very rare in a car costing $15,000. Build quality is right up there, it is a Honda anyway. The insurance is average and the maintainence is average also. Just keep up with what the books tell you can this car can run forever.
Pros: Zippy, interior volume, looks, gearbox, gas mileage
Cons: Driving position

The Clown Car — I affectionately call this the "silly little car"...but in reality...it is a mighty big car in a itty bitty package. It has great acceleration for such a tiny thing...and once moving, it loves to run. Gas mileage is probably top of the list as far as biggest perks...and cargo room is the second on the list. Yes...I said it...cargo room. This thing can haul just about anything. The one move that surprised me the most was 2 dressers, 2 night stands, a lamp and 4 bags of clothes in one trip. Not to mention...for downtown city driving...it really doesn't get much better. There isn't a parking spot on the planet I can't fit into with this car. I still call it the "Clown Car" on occasion...but all in all...I think it is a great buy! Really just fun to drive!
Pros: Just about everything
Cons: Can't think of one at the moment

Flying Raijin
The Flying Thunder God Technique is a technique which allows the user to transport themselves to a given location in the blink of an eye.
To activate this technique, the user places a special seal or "technique formula" (術式, jutsu-shiki; ; ; ) to mark an intended destination. After this is done, they can enter a dimensional void at will that instantaneously transports them to the location of the seal. The mark can be applied to almost any area through brief physical contact, including an opponent or some other surrounding feature. The user, not limited to just their own body, can also use this technique to teleport other objects or people, such as when Minato used it to teleport Kurama out of Konohagakure, though the size of the object dictates the amount of chakra required.
Tobirama Senju
Besides the Flying Thunder God Technique itself, Tobirama has been observed using the Flying Thunder God Slash — a derived technique that compliments his kenjutsu prowess by incorporating the Flying Thunder God Technique's instantaneous teleportation. With that technique, he was able to land a mortal wound on Izuna Uchiha.
Minato Namikaze
Due to his exploits with this technique, Minato Namikaze gained the moniker of "Konoha's Yellow Flash" (木ノ葉の黄色い閃光, Konoha no Kiiroi Senkō; ; ; ). Minato most commonly applied the formula in advance to his special kunai, which he would scatter all over the battlefield when a fight commenced, so that they could be teleported to at any time. Using such tactics, Konohagakure even proved victorious in a battle against Iwagakure during the Third Shinobi World War, despite already being vastly outnumbered. By having his subordinates toss his special kunai randomly into the enemy's lines, Minato used the technique to appear within their ranks, using his great speed to seemingly be in several places at once and wipe out entire squadrons one by one before they could even react.
This technique, combined with Minato's immense natural speed and reflexes, according to A, made him the fastest ninja to ever live. The technique is fast enough to even allow Minato to escape being warped away, despite having already been partially sucked in,and dodge A's top-speed attack.Minato could also incorporate the formula into other seals, such as that of his wife, allowing him to come immediately to her aid at any time. Minato also has the ability to send people to different markings simultaneously.
Hokage Guard Platoon
Minato passed this technique on to his special guards: Genma Shiranui, Raidō Namiashi, and another unknown Konoha shinobi. However, all three together are needed to execute the technique. To do so, they form a circle with one another by each performing the seal of confrontation with outstretched arms, so that their thumbs, middle and index fingers are touching those of the others. This allows them to transport both themselves and anything inside the confines of the ring to a marked destination. Since becoming the guards of the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade herself has also been marked with the technique formula. Template:-

- Flying Raijin (Fanon)
- Although it is often compared with the Body Flicker Technique, the speed and range of this technique are much greater. In principle, this technique is instead more similar to the Summoning Technique, as it revolves around the manipulation of the space–time continuum rather than accelerated movement. However, instead of bringing something to the user, it sends them somewhere.
- The name Hiraishin is also the phonic of the Japanese word 避雷針, which means "lightning rod". This may suggest the reasoning as to why the technique is restricted towards a seal, because lightning is attracted to lightning rods.
- The technique can create smoke similar to a Summoning Technique, but that is not always the case.

Do patients who achieve pregnancy using IVF-PGS do the recommended genetic diagnostic testing in pregnancy?
This study was performed from 2015 to 2017 in the Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at Northwestern University. We included patients who became pregnant after IVF-PGS who were seen by the Division of Reproductive Genetics and non-PGS control group.ResultsSixty-eight patients were included. A total of 50 patients (73.5%) opted for non-invasive prenatal screening; 5 (7.4%) had invasive testing (4 had chorionic villus sampling and 1 had amniocentesis). A total of 13 patients (19%) declined further genetic testing. When comparing demographic data, the mean age was significantly higher in the group of patie...

Potential application of testosterone replacement therapy as treatment for obesity and type 2 diabetes in men
Publication date: Available online 15 August 2018Source: SteroidsAuthor(s): Julius Fink, Masahito Matsumoto, Yoshifumi TamuraAbstractSedentary lifestyle and over-nutrition are the main causes of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the same causes are major triggers of hypogonadism. Many T2D patients show low testosterone levels while hypogonadal men seem to be prone to become diabetic. Testosterone plays a major role in the regulation of muscle mass, adipose tissue, inflammation and insulin sensitivity and is therefore indirectly regulating several metabolic pathways, while T2D is commonly triggered by insulin resi...

Reproductive status affects the expression of prolactin receptor mRNA in the brain of female Damaraland mole-rats
Publication date: Available online 15 August 2018Source: Journal of Chemical NeuroanatomyAuthor(s): Cornelia Voigt, Nigel BennettAbstractThe eusocial Damaraland mole-rat (Fukomys damarensis) represents an extreme example of reproductive skew, in that reproduction is completely blocked in female subordinate group members. It is thought that in these animals normal GnRH secretion from the hypothalamus is disrupted. Prolactin, a peptide hormone secreted from the anterior pituitary gland, has been implicated in a wide variety of functions. Well documented in rodents is its role in mediating lactational infertility. Elevated ci...

The role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) common gene mutations in Iranian women with uterine fibroids
Uterine myomas are benign uterine tumors that originate from smooth muscle cells of the myometrium. This common complication can be associated with irreversible complications, including infertility and malignancy. Better understanding of the genetic characteristics of myoma may effect on treatment. Epidermal growth factor receptor gene (EGFR) is one of the most important genes that has the major role in the pathogenesis of myoma, cell growth, differentiation, proliferation and mutagenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate EGFR common gene mutations in Iranian women with uterine fibroids.

Dear science, Today my sons, Oliver and Victor, are 15 years old. It is not a miracle; it is thanks to you. Unable to get pregnant I needed infertility therapy. If you had not isolated the hormones, developed tests, and then designed medications for ovarian stimulation and to trigger ovulation I would never have become pregnant. If ultrasound had not been developed I would not have known I was pregnant with triplets and then what eventually happened next would likely have been even more of a catastrophe. It is sometimes hard to see how these kinds of things helped, but I have not forgotten. I know there is an orchestra inv...

Sperm lipidic profiles differ significantly between ejaculates resulting in pregnancy or not following intracytoplasmic sperm injection
AbstractAlthough assisted reproduction techniques involve the use of semen samples, there is little scientific methodology applied when selecting sperm. To select the most appropriate spermatozoa, first we need to define the optimal molecular characteristics. Sperm lipids may contribute to sperm function, thus our aim was to compare the lipidic profiles of sperm samples used in intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles that ultimately led to a pregnancy with those that did not.Spermatozoa from infertile patients after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (group non-pregnant,n = 16; vs. group pregnant,n =&thi...

Early symptoms of dementia may manifest primarily as memory problems. As the disease progresses, the brain is more and more affected, and other types of symptoms will begin to occur. Caregivers may be surprised when their loved one's moods and behaviors change, but this is normal, and many of the changes are common and predictable.
While separate phenomenons, emotional and behavioral problems are often inter-related. For example: sleep disturbances may cause irritability, hoarding may be related to anxiety, etc.

Polling place workers needed
WITH the State Election on Saturday, 26 March, the New South Wales Electoral Commission is looking for people to work at polling places across the Northern Rivers as election officials.
"This is a great opportunity for people looking for casual work to help in the administration of one of the state's most important events," NSW electoral commissioner Colin Barry said.
"We are also keen to employ people who speak another language in addition to English.
On election day election officials issue ballot papers to electors and count the ballot papers after the close of voting.
"This is a unique opportunity to work behind the scenes of an election and to be paid for it.
"Election officials can earn more than $300 by working on polling day. Other rates will depend on the type of work and number of hours on duty."
Anyone who is interested can get more information and register their interest at www.votensw.info or call 1300 135 736.

For the past two years, I have been getting a word in January that sums up the lesson(s) God has in store for me for the year.
It started in 2015 when I sensed the word "simplify". Just the word conjured up visions of peace and I was looking forward to a year of simplifying my life. Sadly, that wasn't the lesson God had in mind. Instead, my world was filled with illness and chaos (I wrote about it here). It took me twelve months to learn that I was meant to find simple peace and faith in the midst of illness. It was NOT the lesson I would have chosen for myself.
Last January my word was "acceptance" and even though I was a year wiser and knew better, I couldn't shake the belief that I was going to be accepting some wonderful things in my life. So, I decided to help God give me what I wanted.
Those who know me, know that the auto-immune disease I suffer from is the bane of my existence. It involves pretty much everything I hate in life: daily nausea and dizziness, sudden uncontrollable bouts of violent vertigo, hearing loss and constant double vision. And, even though I've been dealing with this illness for almost 15 years, I cannot accept that it doesn't have a cure.
So, I began the year by going to a Naturopath, and soon my house was filled with powders, drops and supplements. Next, I tried acupuncture and laid in a dark room with needles stuck all over my body while soft music played. Then, I had obscure bloodwork done that showed abnormalities. That set off another whole set of appointments and tests.
There were surgeries done, and set-backs and recoveries. Rehabilitation followed, which made me so ill that even the therapist recommended I quit. I went on special diets that forbid: dairy, sugar, gluten, beans, nuts, soda, coffee and even certain vegetables.
By the end of the year, I had gone to almost a hundred medical appointments in an attempt to improve my quality of life (and accept the gift of healing). I had worked hard, tried so many different things and given up so much and yet, instead of being given healing or even reduced symptoms, I had actually gone backwards and been given more unwanted symptoms instead.
As usual, it took me all twelve months to learn what I was supposed to. I had wasted the vast majority of time trying to change what I was supposed to be accepting. This is what I finally learned:
"Acceptance is not about accepting what I think I deserve. True acceptance means accepting what I have been given."
So, here I am at the end of 2016. Nothing about my illness has improved, but hopefully I have (even just a little). A wise friend who has lived a decade and a half longer than I have, told me that acceptance is going to be like alcoholism; I'm going to have to take it a day at a time. I can't just decide to be accepting and expect my life to fall into place. I will have to choose acceptance minute by minute, day by day. I will get to accept the good and I will have to learn to accept the times I am very ill. And, that's just how acceptance works.
(The word that is coming to me for 2017 is "Rest". I have no illusions that it means what I want it to mean!).
